Do you actually want to know, or are you just passive-aggressively
niggling at us in your self-appointed role as the Acronym Police?

Because it wouldn't have been too hard to look up, if you actually
wanted to know.  The second Google hit from the top, and the first one
which isn't about a musician, is:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network-attached_storage

Network-Attached Storage.  File storage space your computer reads and
writes at over your ethernet rather than over some traditional
hard-disk-pluggy interface.  You know how computers can share file
space over a network?  Well, a NAS box is a little appliance with a
computer inside which is meant just to share file space.  Potentially
to multiple computers at the same time, and potentially from some
far-off corner of your house, if that's most convenient to you.

You're welcome!

(Leo said "thanks", and I think he actually wants to know.)
